Jealousy

Submitted for Jealousy contest

 feelings, green, heart, heartbroken, jealousy, passion
A string of dodoitsu poetry on jealousy

Jealousy soars a sour note 
Deadens all perceptions true
Carries emptiness inside
 A  broken heart ruled!

Tears sting and run like rivers
When jealous acts take over 
To one's inefficiencies 
Envied mistrust rules!

Green-eyed looks cause love hang-ups
Monsters  insecurities 
That mate with hatred and bile
Wed only heartache!
